What is Wellness Dentistry Network?

Promoting Health, Growing Practices, & Transforming Lives

Wellness Dentistry:
Bridging Oral Health and Total Body Health

In recent years, the connection between oral health and total body health has gained significant attention and acceptance. Research shows that bacteria in the mouth can travel throughout the body, potentially causing infections and contributing to systemic conditions. For instance, the bacteria linked to gum disease have been associated with serious health issues such as heart disease, diabetes, Alzheimer’s, and dementia – amongst 57 other diseases.

Wellness dentistry is an approach that recognizes the oral-systemic connection and focuses on integrating wellness protocols into everyday dental practice. It emphasizes the role of dentists in improving their patients’ overall health by addressing oral health issues that may have far-reaching effects on the body. This proactive approach allows dental professionals to detect disease early, educate patients, and guide them toward better long-term health.

The future of dentistry is here!
